"The kids are here, this way, come quickly." The young man had obviously been waiting at the door for a while, and when he saw their eyes lit up, he waved to a few people.
The other party's attitude was so natural that she even suspected that the other party was someone she knew in the past but had just forgotten.
But the next moment, Hillman's address instantly overturned all her unreliable thoughts.
Hearing someone Xi shouting "Father" happily, Jiang Hui instantly realized that this should be Hillman's father, Aaron Hillman.
The other party seems a little different than imagined. Jiang Hui thought to himself.
Looking at the other person's handsome face and gentle smile, it is hard to imagine that this is a rising star with a high reputation in the business world.
Hillman, like Clarence, has obvious Europa characteristics, with a high nose, deep eyes, and deep three-dimensional facial features.
But Clarence is a very typical Germanic race, with blond hair, blue eyes, and fair and translucent skin. Hillman, on the other hand, is of Greek race, with black hair and black eyes. Although he is also Caucasian, his skin does not appear particularly white. The other party is also very tall. At only thirteen or fourteen years old, he is almost as tall as those young people who are seventeen or eighteen years old.
Although the elder in front of him also had black hair and black eyes, his facial contours were softer than Hillman's, and he had the appearance of someone from the Chinese Dynasty. Hillman actually doesn't look much like him.
Because they had already met a big shot like Zhou Xiuwen's father before, several of them had strong psychological qualities. They all consciously stepped forward to greet the elders obediently during this meeting.
The other party clicked their names as if they were very curious, in a very natural way, "You are classmate Xiao Jiang, right?" Al has told me about you..."Classmate Clarence, your father and I haven't seen each other for a long time..."You are classmate Huan, you are welcome..."
No matter which world Jiang Hui was in, he had never met an elder who was so familiar to him. He felt like he was a peer not much older than them, like an elder brother. What's even more rare is that the attitude and tone are natural, as if we have known each other for many years, without any sudden and deliberate remarks.
But Jiang Hui clearly remembered that they only met this person for a while. The other party didn't know if they still remembered their faces, but within a short conversation, they felt like they were seeing each other out of thin air.
How scary... I finally know where the familiarity in this guy Hillman comes from.
Such a person who is as gentle as spring breeze and drizzle is so sincere in communicating with you. If you are more stupid, you may be sold for a lot of money without knowing what happened.
For such elders, let alone Jiang Hui and Clarence, even Huan Xian, who has always been cold and cold, cannot keep a straight face.
The other party came out specially to greet Jiang Hui and the others. After a brief acquaintance on the lawn, he led them into... the palace at the back.
Jiang Hui finally understood why Hillman was not surprised when he went to Zhou Xiuwen's house last time. Because his home is even more exaggerated than that, it’s simply—this is a palace, right? right? !
Although Jiang Hui already knew about the background of the Hillman family from friends, it was just a verbal and conceptual understanding, and the feeling of actually seeing it with his own eyes was different.
The mansion in front of you, which should be called a palace, is like the palace where the lost aristocratic royal family lived in the old century of Blue Star. It is splendid and magnificent, and has a sense of glitz unique to the nobility.
The style of the inside of the house was the same as that of the outside. It could even be said that it was more luxurious inside. Standing on the floor, she seemed to feel that every tile was glittering with gold. However, the atmosphere in this house seems to be different from that of Zhou Xiuwen's family.
The last time they stayed at Zhou's residence temporarily, the people walking there were all sergeants and guards, and they were prohibited from moving around at will. And each of them looked solemn, as if they were in a military camp.
Well, judging from Zhou Yuanjing's identity, Zhou Zhai can indeed be called a military camp in another sense. In short, the overall atmosphere at Zhou Xiuwen's house was relatively tense, and there was a feeling that they could not relax.
Now they felt completely different when they arrived at the Hillman House. It is very luxurious here, but very quiet. There are no servants walking around. It feels incompatible with this big house. It is not popular. Even the people who are diligently cleaning the corridors are intelligent robots.
In such a large house, the only lively scene was the one they had just been brought in. The whole environment was particularly quiet, the kind that could cause an echo even if someone shouted.
It turned out that Uncle Aaron wanted to personally take Jiang Hui and the others to sit down in the private living room at the back, because the gourmet team responsible for preparing tonight's dinner had not arrived yet. So before that they can chat and enjoy a leisurely afternoon tea together.
However, the other party is not as free as it seems on the surface. Before he was halfway along the road, two people who looked like assistants came to remind him that he had something urgent. The other party had no choice but to ask Hillman to help receive the guests and then left in a hurry.
Of course this is Hillman's home. This guy has always been acquainted with him, so what's there to be embarrassed about now leading his friends to activities in his own territory? Even without the pressure of his father around, he seemed more lively than usual, and kept introducing the novelty gadgets on the aisle of his home to Jiang Hui and the others.
It’s really not Hillman’s intention to show off, because this is the fact. His house really has a lot of novelty things that are hard to see outside.
For example, there are rare intelligent conversation robots on the market, photon transmitters, strange misaligned stairs, bionic walls that can be transformed and integrated at will by touch, and so on. This mansion is not only luxurious, it also contains countless crystallizations of contemporary science and technology, making it a well-deserved science and technology museum for Seven Hundred and Thirty-Two Stars.
but--
"Why don't you see anyone else?" Jiang Huizhuangruo asked casually.
Even if the day after tomorrow is a public holiday, this house must be too empty. Since they arrived here, except for Hillman's father, the housekeeper, and the four of them, they didn't meet anyone else.
Oh no, in fact, they met three or four on the way, but two of them were more like assistants. When they saw them passing by, they ran away in a hurry to say hello. They looked very busy.
It's a bit unusual for such a big house to have so few people.
"Oh, there are indeed relatively few people in my house. Except for me, the housekeeper, and a few old employees, there is usually no one in the house," Hillman explained.
Of course, such a big house cannot be managed by just a few old employees and housekeepers. Therefore, the Hillman family usually invites a team to clean the house regularly, and most of the rest of the work in the house is completed by intelligent robots and some new technological tools.
